Abstract

We consider a transformation of a normalized measure space such that the image of any point is a finite set. We call such transformation mm-transformation. In this case the orbit of any point looks like a tree. In the study of mm-transformations we are interested in the properties of the trees. An mm-transformation generates a stochastic kernel and a new measure. Using these objects, we introduce analogies of some main concept of ergodic theory: ergodicity, Koopman and Frobenius-Perron operators etc. We prove ergodic theorems and consider examples. We also indicate possible applications to fractal geometry and give a generalization of our construction. Some results which have analogies in the classical ergodic theory we are proved using standard methods. Other results have no analogies.
